What to look for in a Tech+ practice test

Make sure it says FC0-U71, not FC0-U61. Tech+ FC0-U71 replaced IT Fundamentals+ (ITF+, FC0-U61) in July 2024. Many Udemy listings still carry ITF+ or mislabelled titles, so look for FC0-U71 and the six domains: concepts, infrastructure, applications and software, software development, data and databases, and security.
Expect multiple choice only. The exam has up to 70 multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes and no performance-based questions, so you do not need simulation practice. Look for timed 60-minute exams and a score report by domain.
Choose sets with an explanation for every answer. Tech+ questions often ask for the best answer among plausible options, so you learn most from why the others fail. CompTIA's free sample shows an answer key only; Dion, Pocket Prep and MeasureUp explain each answer.
Pick established makers over cheap bulk listings. Udemy lists dozens of Tech+ sets with 1,000+ questions, many with few or no ratings. Dion's set is the best known, and Pocket Prep, MeasureUp and CompTIA publish their own question counts and exam codes.
Skip sites selling "real exam questions." Sites promising actual Tech+ questions or a guaranteed pass are selling leaked or copied items. CompTIA's candidate agreement counts using brain dumps as misconduct and lets CompTIA revoke every CompTIA certification you hold. A real practice test explains why each answer is right; a dump only lists answers.

How to use Tech+ practice tests

Start with a short diagnostic. Take CompTIA's 10 questions or one Pocket Prep quiz early and note which of the six domains you miss. Infrastructure is the biggest at 24% of the exam.
Read the explanation for every miss and every guess. A right answer you guessed is still a gap. Learn why the correct option wins, especially on units, binary and hex, ports and storage types.
Fix weak domains, then go timed. Drill the domains you miss most in short quizzes, then take full 60-minute runs in the last week. Candidates describe the real questions as fairly basic but sometimes oddly worded, so answer from CompTIA's definitions, not real-world habit.
Avoid memorising repeats. Retaking the same exam tests recall, not understanding. Switch to a different set for later runs.

Tech+ practice test FAQ

Are there free Tech+ practice tests?

Yes. CompTIA publishes a free 10-question FC0-U71 practice test with an answer key, and Pocket Prep gives 30 free questions. Neither replaces a full timed exam with explanations.

Does the Tech+ exam have performance-based questions?

No. CompTIA lists up to 70 multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes, and candidates report no PBQs. Practice with multiple-choice sets only.

How many Tech+ practice exams should I take?

There is no official number. Take a short diagnostic first, then two or three full timed exams, reviewing every wrong answer. Passing is 650 out of 900, but do not treat a practice percentage as a pass rule.

Is Tech+ the same as ITF+, and do ITF+ practice tests still work?

Tech+ replaced ITF+ in July 2024 and adds software development, data and AI topics. Older FC0-U61 practice tests miss part of the current exam, so choose sets labelled FC0-U71.
